1x1 is an MBF21 (-complevel 21) community project hosted in my discord server. The concept is simple: the maps only use 1 texture and 1 flat, with the exception of a single switch texture and F_SKY (which was only allowed to be used if the texture was transferred to it!). The wad features 24 mbf21-compatible maps (01-21, 31-33) made by various authors, with difficulty ranging from around early Sunlust difficulty to absolutely batshit crazy, though difficulty settings are implemented. Maps are ordered very roughly by difficulty. Pistol starts are intended but not required.

Tested with DSDA-Doom 0.25.6+, but any version that supports mbf21 should work. GZDoom should work with most maps, but some maps (04, 13) are known not to work.

Uses UMAPINFO

Be sure to have translucency ON!


I don't feel like I really need to say this, but the conceit of this WAD is astoundingly cool. It's a huge feat to make scenes as cool as the one screenshot here with only 1 texture and 1 flat. The thread has loads more jaw dropping screenshots. This dropped over the weekend, so I haven't yet had a chance to play through the whole thing, but I can't visualize a world in which this wad is NOT worth checking out right away.

As always, give the authors some love and feedback if you like this! The Doom community thrives on engagement, and creators like this need to be pumped up.

Keep in mind though that this appears to be a much more difficult WAD than average, as its targeting Sunlust levels of difficulty at the low end of the range. But hey, IDDQD exists for a reason. :D

You will need to use a source port that supports MBF21, such as dsda-doom or the latest Eternity Engine. It's very worth downloading those anyways, so get AT IT.
